Letters for June 18
June is the 53rd anniversary of Title IX, which was meant to protect girls sports, yet parents and girl athletes everywhere are frustrated with what is happening now. I am very thankful to Rep.
Neptune, for example, was first “discovered” not through a telescope, but by the meticulous calculations of Uranus’ orbit and discovery of gravitational anomalies therein. However, such a technique ...
Gravitational waves, ripples in spacetime caused by accelerating massive objects, have revolutionised astrophysics since their first detection in 2015. The ability to model these waves with precision ...
